Originally posted by Homo_erectus So, a new but related question that I can't seem to figure out. My external flash will not fire when I put a reverse mounted lens on my camera. The on camera flash will go no problem but the metz refuses to fire. I've been reading the manual for the K-01 and the metz and neither is helping.
I figured that if I just put the metz in manual it would just fire at full strength but nothing happens. Anyone know what I am missing?
I couldn't get my pentax 540 to fire remotely the other night, drove me crazy as i had a pretty girl sitting against a red sunset!, I tried a different camera and it worked perfectly. When I got home I thought about it, put the flash on the hot shoe and took some shots to sync the flash, and all is good. So maybe it's out of sync, if not, does it work with normal lens set ups?
